Emerging Producer CALV Unveils Debut Album 'LILAC' – A Revolutionary Sonic Journey

Emerging musical producer CALV is poised to unveil his groundbreaking debut album “LILAC,” slated for release on July 19th. CALV, who grew up surrounded by the contrasting landscapes of wilderness and strip malls, has spent years cultivating a unique sound that transcends the boundaries of traditional genres. “LILAC,” which stands for “Living In Lies And Confusion,” is a testament to his expansive musical exploration and the diverse influences that have shaped his artistic journey.

From an early age, CALV‘s mother exposed him to a rich tapestry of musical genres, igniting a lifelong passion for sound. This, combined with the cultural wealth available during the golden age of the internet, allowed him to draw inspiration from a wide array of artists. Influences such as Hideki Naganuma, Disclosure, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Alison Wonderland, and Grimes have profoundly impacted CALV’s creative vision.

CALV‘s mission with “LILAC” is clear: to transport listeners into a new realm of hybrid musical excellence. The album, which has been meticulously conceptualized over the past five years, delves deep into themes of propaganda and its pervasive impact on society, alongside personal, emotionally charged experiences that have marked CALV‘s life in recent years.

Sonically, “LILAC” is a dynamic fusion of Drum & Bass, Techno, and Trip Hop, featuring evocative samples such as Cesar Chavez’s iconic “Grapes of Wrath” speech and elements from the beloved video game “Beyond Good & Evil.” This 11-track album weaves rebellion, queer love, and mesmerizing soundscapes into a chaotic yet harmonious blend, reflecting the eclectic influences of CALV‘s upbringing.

In anticipation of the full album release, CALV has already offered fans a taste of what’s to come with two EPs, “LILAC: CHAPTER 1” and “LILAC: CHAPTER 2,” available on all streaming platforms.

As CALV prepares to share “LILAC” with the world, he invites listeners to buckle up and enjoy the ride. This debut album promises to be a transformative experience, transporting the masses into an innovative new world of music.
